why have they not come close to making an album as good as their debut?

this

Angles and Comedown Machine are both better than Is This It.
>>
>>64219900

which two?

room on fire was just a more boring rehash of is this it and angles only has one decent track on the whole album.

>>64219936

Rank them, families.

>Is This It 9/10

>Room on Fire 9,5/10

>First Impressions of Earth 3/10

>Angles 7,5/10

>Comedown Machine 7/10

Just make Room on Fire a 7 and you got a pretty damn good review list.
>>
>>64220095

drop angles and comedown machine a point and we're in agreement
>>
>>64220074
how is your taste actually that shit
>>
why all the hate towards first impressions


Personally, I like it more than Angles. It's more of Strokes album whereas Angles is more of a Julian Casablancas album.

(Not that that's a bad thing, though...)

First Impressions is pretty damn boring, VERY generic.

>awful instrument tones
>horrible mixing and mastering
>boring songs
>mediocre vocals
Oh I'm sorry you think it's my fault that they suck (Angles was a fluke, but a good one at that).
>>
I always felt like Room on Fire was disc 2 of their debut, and it's fucking better

It seems like they took some of that FOTM energy and started practicing their guitars and shit on ROF. It's on point
>>
Because their debut was literally 5/10: The Album.
>>
>>64219861
you should try room on fire.
>>
>>64220436

>horrible mixing and mastering

how do i just know that you're a powerchord-tier guitarist
>>
>>64220911
I'm actually a funk and r&b bass player. I play some latin jazz as well.
>>
>>64221010

why do you think the album is poorly mixed?
>>
>>64220436

i hope that you come to understand the strokes while you're still young
